Do you want to?

I can't actually dance in this grade of boots. When I've enchanted the new ones I'll be able to ice skate in them, if I want, if I attach blades to them.

Cool, are they tight enough?

Yep, tried 'em on in the store.

Awesome. Ice skating is...really not my thing, for obvious reasons, but other people have a lot of fun with it.

It was kind of a symbol of Things I Could Not Do Because I Would Fall Over.

Falling down while learning to skate is normal but most people stop.

Oh, without my boots it's kind of generous to say I can walk. And with my upgraded boots I can run through trees like a Quendi or leap around on ice.

...I want a pair, eventually.

Sure! Remembering how I did it a few years ago will be easier than inventing anything new.

Oh, good.

There were so many things. Once I figured out Valinor was slowing me down I fixed it and I got so fast...

I wish I had figured it out, I could have had so much more time.

I think it was my really high expectations for being in a science world that did it and it still took me a Year.

I was there for a lot longer than a Year.

You were distracted. By someone who was not a tiny Fëanáro.

It's true. His siblings teased us about it kind of a lot.

Giggle.

One time we spent most of a Year at a beach house and--Elves swim naked, I'm sure you know that.

Yes, I do. But not unbraided, oh no.

I explained that they were the same thing. He called me 'you poor thing' so of course I had to retaliate by very deliberately imagining unbraiding my hair at him.

Bella cackles. I just got over it, there's some species that treat nudity really differently in Materia. Nymphs are religiously obliged to go around stark naked literally all the time and public decency laws don't apply to them or anyone within, I forget, ten feet of them.

Oh, I didn't care about any other swimming Elves, but--naked husband.

Yeah, that'd change things.

And it's not like they don't have good reason for the hair thing.
